ASP/Access files mbd/IIS

[Ammar]

Hi All...
I am quite new to ASP and trying to get help learning this language, I am
trying to connect an ASP page to an mdb file which I created with Microsoft
Access, and running the combination on my computer (WindowsXP professional
where I installed IIS)
My question: are there any special settings or programs that need to be
installed on my computer to run this mdb-ASP combination? any special
custimization of IIS??
Thanks

MDAC, but that's already installed. You can get the latest version of MDAC
at www.microsoft.com/data.

any special
custimization of IIS??

Well, not necessarily, unless your MDB file is in the public WWW area of
your site.

Just be sure that the IUSR account has read/write permissions to the
DIRECTORY that the .mdb file is in.

Here are some links.

Here is something I put together about ASP that hopefully might help
somehow.
